If you mean it smells like critical thinking then why would that be yucky? sniff sniff, smells like freedom to me

No, that's not what I meant. I meant the atmosphere , the scent, the aura, the vibe of SR -- critical thinking is good, question everything, but becoming attached to any idea is not healthy. Becoming so stuck on the idea that Carlos was a fraud when it really doesn't matter, is a gigantic waste of energy. QS is right, we learn for ourselves regardless of what any book says. If a 'lie' in a book validates our own seeing, what does that mean? Does that mean our seeing was wrong? No. I can open the dictionary, or a kids book to a certain page and get the same validation. I can get it from a train passing by me or a bird in the sky! Its about being open to gettting messages from Spirit and the Nagual. Those can come from anywhere. And those do not lie.
